We report a high-statistics study of the reaction p+W→μ++μ−+X with use of an intense 400-GeV/c proton beam, a magnetized-iron beam dump, and a wide-acceptance detector. Using data near xF=0, we have extracted the nucleon sea-quark distribution and find it to be a factor 1.6±0.3 larger than that obtained by inelastic charged-current neutrino scattering. We then compare the Drell-Yan prediction with our data including the previously unexplored region of large xF and find excellent agreement for a wide range of μ-pair invariant mass.

STUDY OF A2 PRODUCTION IN THE REACTION PI- P ---> K0 K- P AT 50-GEV/C, 100-GEV/C, AND 175-GEV/C

Inspire Record 191493 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23901

The reaction π−p→K0K−p has been measured from 50 to 175 GeV/c. The production characteristics of the A2 have been analyzed. We find spin and t dependence similar to lower energies, but the cross section falls rapidly with energy. In a Regge description of π−p→A2−p our data imply a rather small Pomeron-exchange component.

Highlights of the Reaction $\pi^- p \to \pi^- \pi^+ n$ at 100-{GeV}/$c$ and 175-{GeV}/$c$

Inspire Record 13822 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.33875

We present a summary of the physics results from an experimental study of the reaction π−p→π−π+n at 100 and 175 GeV/c incident-beam momentum. Our data show the continuing dominance of one-pion exchange in these reactions with the characteristic 1Plab2 momentum dependence. We extract the pion Regge trajectory from our data on π−p→ρ0n and study the zero structure of the ππ differential cross section up to sππ=12 GeV2.

Nuclear Enhancement of pi0 and eta mesons Produced at Large Transverse Momenta

Povlis, J. ; Biel, J. ; Bromberg, C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 51 (1983) 967, 1983.
Inspire Record 191764 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20477

The authors have measured the large-pT inclusive cross sections for π0 and η production near 90° in the center-of-mass system in 200-GeV/c π+ and proton collisions with beryllium, carbon, and aluminum targets. The cross section for both π0 and η mesons rises with increasing nucleon number (A) of the target nucleus as Aα, with α>1. The ratio of the π0 yield in pA collisions to that in π+A collisions decreases with increasing pT.

Inclusive Production of Direct Photons in 200-{GeV}/$c$ Collisions

McLaughlin, M. ; Biel, J. ; Bromberg, C. ; et al.
Phys.Rev.Lett. 51 (1983) 971, 1983.
Inspire Record 191763 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.20473

The authors have measured the inclusive production of direct photons in the transverse momentum (pT) range 2.1-5.0 GeV/c in 200-GeV/c collisions of protons and π+ mesons on a carbon target. A significant yield of direct photons was observed for pT>2.5 GeV/c. The invariant cross section for direct-photon production, when compared with measurements from the CERN intersecting storage rings, can be expressed in terms of pT and xT=2pTs as (42±14)(1−xT)8.1±1.0pT−6.6±0.3 μb/GeV2 for the c.m. energy range from s=19.4 to 63 GeV, and for the xT range from 0.2 to 0.5.

Measurement of the Pion Form-factor in the Timelike Region for $q^2$ Values Between .1-{GeV}/$c^2$ and .18-{GeV}/$c^2$

The EM form factor of the pion has been studied in the time-like region by measuring σ (e + e − → π + π − ) normalized to σ (e + e − → μ + μ − ). Results have been obtained for q 2 down to the physical threshold.

STUDY OF K*- (890) AND K*- (1430) PRODUCTION IN THE REACTION K- P ---> ANTI-K0 PI- P AT 100-GEV/C AND 175-GEV/C

Phys.Rev.D 29 (1984) 2469-2475, 1984.
Inspire Record 205297 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.23731

The reaction K−p→K¯0π−p has been studied at 100 and 175 GeV/c and the reaction π−p→K0K−p at 50, 100, and 175 GeV/c. Both reactions are dominated by production of resonances, K*(890), K*(1430) and A2(1320), A2(2040), respectively. Production cross sections, t distributions, and decay-angular distributions are studied. Isoscalar natural-parity exchange is dominant. The energy dependence of the K* and A2 resonance production between 10 and 175 GeV/c is well described by a Regge-pole model. Our data on A2 corrects that in an earlier paper.

Jets in High Transverse Energy Events at the {CERN} Intersecting Storage Rings

Inspire Record 202452 DOI 10.17182/hepdata.33870

Most events with high neutral transverse energy, E T 0 , produced in pp colisions at √ s = 62.3 GeV, are jet-like. The evidence for this is presented, based on data collected using an electromagnetic calorimeter covering 90% of 2π in azimuth. The spectrum d N /d E T 0 has been measured over the E T 0 range from 10 to 35 GeV. Properties of the observed jets are discussed.
